Help! We're trying to write CD-ROMS on Philips CDD 521 CD recorder, using Gearxpress for Windows. The CD recorder works fine when attached to a Mac, but when trying to write CDs from a PC everything fails. The PC is equipped with to SCSI adapters. When connected to an SCSI adapter that addresses no other SCSI device the SCSI testing software correctly detects the CD writer as being attached, but Gearxpress won't find it. When connected to the starting up SCSI host adapter (that is, the one the hard disk is connected to) we're able to start a writing process but writing after a couple of seconds aborts with a fatal disk error reported by DOS itself. In either case when checking out the CD it appears to contain data but no data can be accessed from the file finder. Any clue to what might help? Thomas
